Kangana Ranaut has quite a strong opinion on politics. However the Queen actress is clear that she doesn't want to join the profession.

During her interaction with Yogi Sadhguru last evening, Kangan spoke at length about several subjects, including the lynching incidents in the country.

Asked if she sees herself joining politics in the near future, Kangana said, "Politics shouldn't be a career. I feel if someone like me wants to join politics, then first of all they have to achieve detachment."

She also said that one would have to compromise on one's family, home and children to best serve the country.

"Right now, I am so successful (in films) that I don't want to make a career anywhere else. But if I want to serve my land then I can't do it if I have some vested interest in some other department. That becomes conflicting then. So, if people want to pursue politics they should, but they need to achieve some kind of renunciation," she said.

Last week, Kangana expressed her support for Prime Minister Narendra Modi, at the premier of of Chalo Jeete Hain, a short film revolving around Modi's childhood.

After the premier she had said, "He (Modi) is the most deserving candidate. It's not because of his mummy and papa that he has reached this position. This should not be taken away from him. He deserves this place and he has earned it by sheer hard work. There is no conflict, doubt about his credibility as the prime minister."

She also said that Modi deserves another term in office as "five years is too less to get the country out of the pit that it is in right now." We need to pull it out," said Kangana.
